Paperless Fundraising Raffle “Ticket” Option.
Nonprofit charitable organizations events often contemplate silent auction raffles as another method of increasing event proceeds. Raffles can be fun and effective, however many times they are omitted due to the cumbersome process of the actual selling and distributing paper tickets and then once again summoning the audience’s attention while the winners are drawn by hand and awarded in yet another segment of amplified public address announcements.
What about a ticket-less approach? Fundraising raffle ticket chances can be offered by staff or volunteers on a tablet OR attendees can purchase raffle chances at will on their phone when programmed by SCA.
Be it a 50-50 raffle, a vacation raffle or any other raffle idea, with our mobile bidding platform, a computer random name picker program selects the winners and we notify those attendees right on their phones! The event agenda will specify the time of the drawings, and our professional staff may offer emcee services to announce that the winners can be identified by simply checking their smart phone. It’s easy, fun and no longer a distraction. Ask SCA how mobile bidding digital silent auction raffle “tickets” may be a benefit to your next event. (All raffles subject to state law regulations).
